Old Smyrna Road is a narrow, heavily traveled east-west arterial road in Brentwood, providing a key connection between Wilson Pike and Edmondson Pike. Multiple new developments are planned or currently under construction along the roadway, including the Harlan Residential Development, Ceilo Residential Development, and the Windy Hill Park near the Jones Parkway intersection.
The western half of the study area (approximately ¾ of a mile) features an extremely narrow roadway (15 feet in total width), with large trees, old stone walls, and retaining walls situated close to the travel lane. A roadside drainage channel lies immediately off the edge of the pavement along much of this segment, posing concerns for wider vehicles such as school buses, emergency vehicles, and large trucks.
Additional design studies and public meetings are being conducted to gather feedback and clarify the best design recommendations. Existing historic features will be carefully considered throughout this process. A meeting with property owners along the roadway will be scheduled at a later date.
